Child Care Reimbursement

Child care centers that participate in a Tennessee state reimbursement program for low and moderate-income parents just got a 20% increase – and parents in the program are having their co-pays waived for the rest of the year.The head of an early childhood education advocacy group hailed the changes as a huge win for both parents and child care providers.The subsidies are available for any families making at or below 85% of the state’s median income. For a family of four, that upper limit is $68,652 per year.
